Embryos containing human and animal material have been created in Britain for the first time, a month before the House of Commons votes on new laws to regulate the research.
A team at Newcastle University announced yesterday that it had successfully generated “admixed embryos” by adding human DNA to empty cow eggs in the first experiment of its kind in Britain.
Admixed embryos are widely supported by scientists and patient groups as they provide an opportunity to produce powerful stem-cell models for investigating diseases such as Parkinson’s and diabetes, and for developing new drugs.
Their creation, however, has been opposed by some religious groups, particularly the Roman Catholic Church. Cardinal Keith O’Brien, the head of the Catholic Church in Scotland, described the work last month as “experiments of Frankenstein proportion”....
. From the article -- "The BBC reported that the Newcastle cybrids lived for three days, and that the largest grew to contain 32 cells. The ultimate aim is to grow these for six days, and then to extract embryonic stem cells for use in research."
. All this just brings thoughts of Hitler and his crew of mad scientist !!! -- Their exploration has crossed the line of MORAL ACCEPTABILITY and is nothing short of madness and should be dealt with as a crime not as an advancement in medical research !!!
But hey -- what is to be expected in a world that is ever increasingly moving away from GOD, away from A GOOD CONSCIENCE, desirous of "" N O "" MORAL BOUNDARIES and wistfully seeking to abandon THE CONSEQUENCES of such madness... ??? -- What should be said for any people who forsake ALL LOGIC AND THE LESSONS OF THE PAST... ??? -- What should be said for any people who FORGET themselves, thinking themselves to be more than they truly are... ??? -- This is a people who are headed for A GREAT FALL AND HAVEN'T THE WISDOM AND DISERNMENT TO SEE... !!!
WOE TO men of such a heart !!!
WOE TO any people who appoint for themselves "SERVANTS" of such a godlessly reprobate mind...
Only damned and doomed fools would forget and forgo "TRUTH" to follow lesser men !!!
They say they will NEVER implant these embryos into a human uterus. Time will tell, not so long ago something like this would never have been contemplated.
Disgusting and immoral. I hope the House of Commons will still pass on a ban on this practice , unfortunately this is doubtful, Embryos challenge fails in Lords.
